Genetic diversity and phylogeography of mungbean yellow mosaic India virus in Central India

Abstract

Mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV) is widely prevalent in Central India and threatens many food legumes, including soybean, mungbean and blackgram. Three isolates of MYMIV from the state of Madhya Pradesh, India were fully anlayzed on the basis of their sequences; two genomic components of the virus, DNA-A and DNA-B, eoncoded seven and two genes, respectively, and showed general features in the intergenic region. Phylogenetic analyses of a number of MYMIV isolates classified them into three general groups and virus map location illustrated that MYMIV has been differentiated on the basis of geographical distribution in the Indian subcontinent.
